picture you have taken.

text recognition software that is bundled with the camera.

using MPEG-4
For enhanced movie-shooting, the Digimax U-CA 5 supports MPEG-4 format,
the high-compression high-quality movie clip format. It provides a
recording time three to four times longer than conventional digital
cameras, which is about 2 hours 10 minutes when you are using 256 MB
memory, making it a perfect substitute for a camcorder .You can use the
Digimax U-CA 5 to shoot a movie clip in VGA (640 x 480) at 30 frames per
second and play it on your TV at the same high quality it was taken, or
enjoy it in your PC.
Movie Stabilizer for video
recording
The Digimax U-CA 5 has a movie stabilizer for movie-shooting. Through
automatic detection and correction of lateral and vertical camera movement
caused by the operator's hand shaking, the recording of the subject itself
is kept steady.
Successive recording
function
With continuous video recording, you can pause and resume video recording
any time you want and merge multiple video files into a single file. You
just press the Pause button to pause and press it again to resume
recording. This extra video capability in the Digimax U-CA 5 has been
enabled based on unique Samsung technology.
In-camera movie clip editing
function

was previously only possible with use of a PC. This helps the user make
better videos by allowing the selection of a part of a movie clip for
saving during playback. It also allows you to capture a selected part of a
movie clip as a still image during playback.
PictBridge and USB 2.0
The Digimax U-CA 5 provides a PictBridge feature that allows you to print
5-megapixel photos directly from the camera to a compatible printer,
without the need for a PC. In addition, it supports USB 2.0, that can be
used to provide various useful functions at a much faster speed than USB
1.1.
Additional features provided

deliver clearer, sharper images. It additionally provides various useful
functions such as My Set Shot mode for snapshots, voice recording of up to
one hour, voice memo to record short voice messages onto pictures, and

Graphic User Interface (GUI) with true-color menu windows and menu
settings that can be completed using the Move and Set feature.
